    Pictures Travel cage for CAG

    I’m trying out this cage for Smoky Blue- only for short transport and evacuation if needed. We went to the vet today :) He’s a great model Pics:

    What’s the strangest thing...

    .. that your rescue birds have told you about their prior owners? I was introducing Smoky Blue to the neighbors, and explaining all the sounds and phrases he knows. My neighbor said it sounded a little creepy... we have an unintentional window into a family’s intimate life based on what the...

    Pictures Help me choose a cage, please!

    Hey, guys! I've been doing my research and it seems it's finally time to choose a cage! After a lot of thinking, research and talking to you guys, I decided I'll get two cockatiels. Some of you guys suggested I should buy two cages instead of one, even if the tiels are still babies. Unfortunally...

    Pictures Apparently the view is better upside down

    I am constantly entertained by Louise. She does like to be upside down, but she spent most of tonight upside down (other than throwing her food and water bowls) and having a ball. Or bell as the case may be...

    General Aviation and Parrots??

    Hi everyone! So this might be a weird question, but my girlfriend and I have a Congo African Grey, and I'm also a pilot. We would enjoy flying to visit family for the holidays instead of driving, but general aviation is quite noisy. Does anyone know if this would be hard on a parrot's ears? I...

    Won't Drink Water from a Bowl

    Hey everyone, So my girlfriend and I got a Congo, she is 6 years old, and we are the 3rd owners. We've had her for about 3 months now and she is already really friendly and we have been successful in training her. But she came with this weird water bottle made out of a pipe and it has a little...

    Training inside the cage

    Hello! I recently took in a rehomed CAG. He is not very much into human interaction. He takes treats when I offer them holding them between tips of my fingers, but no more than that. He prefers to stay away from me. In his previous home (he stayed there for 1.5-2 months) he was used to going...

    New CAG owner

    Hello! I really love birds (especially parrots) and I'm from Baku, Azerbaijan. People here know less than nothing about proper care for pet birds and it's really hard to find any pet bird supplies here, too. But parrots mean world to me and I want to do my best for them. Recently I took in a...

    Which one should I adopt?

    Hi, all. I'm a newly registered member here, and looking for advise on adopting my very first Congo African Grey. My husband and I have decided that we're ready to get a parrot. We've done the research, brought toys, treats, cage, t-stand, food, etc. We don't have any kids, nor intend to in...

    Thinking about bringing home a new baby :)

    Hey guys... So as the title implies - we are on the brink of bringing a new baby home. Well, not so much a baby.. he is a 4-5 year old male white bellied Caique. His name is Reggie and I am absolutely in love with him.. I just have a few concerns I am hoping someone can help me with. So...

    ABV and cuttle bone?

    Hi everyone! I recently adopted an CAG named Doc who tested positive for ABV a few years ago. He's on a strict diet to avoid flair ups and medication and seems to be doing really well. I've seen a lot about cuttle bones for parrots however. I don't have any problem getting him one but I'm not...

    New healthy diet

    So I am wanting to change up my cag's diet. What is the healthiest diet to feed a congo grey? Scarlet is 1 year old and is currently on a fresh chop (mostly veggies and a fruit or 2) morning diet with a dry mix (zupreem natural pellets, nuts, dehydrated fruit) for dinner. I want to feed the...

    Pictures Good cage size for a budgie?

    Hi all! Recently, I've been thinking about getting a new cage for my parakeet, Chirp. There's one I have my eye on at Petsmart, and it's the biggest one they have that has appropriately sized gaps in the bars. It's around 26 inches long, 14 inches wide, and 36 inches high. It's a little less...

    Being offered African Greys that have come from the Congo...

    Hi everyone, I'm new to the forum and was struggling to find many opinions through Google, so thought I would do a post in here. I'm an experienced parrot owner, I've hand reared umbrella cockatoos and African greys, as well as rehabilitated & re homes abused birds such as eclectus. I live in...
